Here's a different style of camoflouge I'm considering. Kind of a blend of the traditional Panzer grey and dunkelgelb

I don't know how I missed this but I'm sure glad I come across it now, it's an amazing little tank, I love it (I think it's the rivets that do it for me
)!
And I love what you have done/are doing with it too - exceptional quality and attention to detail.

Re: Panda Hobby Panzer 38-t r/c Conversion
Started to paint the detail bits. I wanted to paint the exhaust system with a metal based paint and I added some baking soda and bits of sand to create the dimpled imperfections on the muffler. ( Thanks mr Herman) for the tip.
after 24 hours once it's dry I'll apply the oxidizer so the rust comes through. I also seperated the upper hull to show how the road wheels, tracks and idlers line up.
Cheers
Carl
